Yeah… so, I think this is as close to winning as you can get. I walked away for like 30 minutes came back and had only lost like 100 of each kind of bee.
Haha yeah, it is not designed to be playable after final wave basically :D It it not polished as it was done in just a week for the jam. Thanks for playing!
I noticed a lot of activity on the game page recently, did someone reposted it somewhere?
Not entirely sure. For myself I saw a youtube video where someone reviewed the top 10 games from the jam. I watched it because I’ve been wanting to play around with Bevy more recently and was hoping to get some ideas and see what bevy was capable of these days.
I actually got a bug where all my buildings stopped building bees. You can see here there are a lot in the queue, but the buildings are stuck somehow/no new bees being created. Went from so many bees, to all my bees dying. Sad times. Great game though!
My strategy, after a few playthroughs, was to be maximize number of bees.
A few nice to haves
1. A wave counter, stopped playing because I didn't know how far I'd gotten, would be fun to have more targets after the final wave, something like achievements
2. maybe a different scaling of the honey production/defence between the two schools and the basic bee or a cost increase on babies after a certain number would reduce the need for so much clicking
2b. I guess a multibuy option would do the same without reducing the number of bees
3. Buying hive expansion would lengthen the game
3b. Prestige system with a reset but a larger hive on rebirth
@AndrewB330 Hope you don't take this as criticism, more of additional brainstorming. Thanks for making this, I enjoyed it!
Yeah your suggestions sound great, especially prestige system. I'm totally aware that game does not scale very well at the end game. It is just because of lack of time during the jam :D I needed to cut toooo much features in order to still make it working in time. Thanks!
Great game ! Managed to survive the final wave after a few tries but got killed one or two waves after. Good difficulty balance. My only complaint (which is more of a nitpick), is the inability to mute the music. Not that the music is bad but it gets a bit annoying with time, and the ability to mute is useful in general. Other than that I had fun figuring out how to survive ! It feels somewhat close to reality, considering how many hives die every year... ;w;

you need baby bees to get regular bee first. And only then you can train them into other types
Yeah you pretty much beat the game :D This bug I think appears only after 30-40 minutes in game, it is floating point precision bug
there is no win sittuatio but great game
Cool game, I like it, really balanced.

Only took in the name of this game and your tip in the instructions after writing this, bees is the goal please ignore 2 and 2b. D'oh!

Muting the tab is usually my go to
